Issue #16728 has been updated by John Warburton.

To keep the colour escapes out of the logs, we set "color = false" in the 
client configuration for the reasons described in the change. We have a wrapper 
script that calls puppet agent and if it detects a tty will run the agent with 
"--color true" so we get the benefit of color discrimination of the (few) 
manual runs we do. This addresses the first point

If we can get the "notice" level back via a configuration variable, I'd be 
happy with that. I don't want to lose it altogether

Bug #16728: puppet agent --verbose has lost notice tag
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16728#change-75438

Author: Malcolm Howe
Status: Needs Decision
Priority: Normal
Assignee: eric sorenson
Category: agent
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 3.0.0
Keywords: ux
Branch: 


In puppet 2.7 lines output from puppet agent --verbose start with a level tag 
such as debug, notice, info, warning, err with the exception of lines that 
could be considered as continuation lines. In puppet 3.0 these have become 
capitalized (Debug, Info etc) and the range of the colouring has changed which 
are fine but notice has disappeared. Example:

Puppet 2.7

    ^[[0;37mdebug: /File[/usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs]/content: Executing 
'diff /usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs 
/tmp/puppet-file20121003-21437-1039k7-0'^[[0m
    ^[[0;36mnotice: /File[/usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs]/content:

puppet 3.0.0

    ^[[0;36mDebug^[[0m: Executing 'diff /usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs 
/tmp/puppet-file20121003-18288-1q7segx-0'

    394c394
    < On OX_HFS_DD At 07:31
    ---
    > On OX_HFS_DD At 07:30
    /File[/usr/local/admin/etc/cronjobs]/content: content changed 
'{md5}d89edc6045aa721fba77ec0f54c8c2d2' to 
'{md5}101441e8bf893cce06ccb87983626b8b'


This is a nuisance when trying to analyse the output with a script.

I am, of course, assuming it isn't an intentional change. If not I'm reporting 
it as a bug.
